86: Dragon's blood, void rules

Long Aotian's growth rate didn't just shock Wan Chuan; even the two Old Ancestors of the Long family, Dragon War Emperor and Dragon War Sovereign, were utterly stunned.

Being carried by Long Aotian like eagles carrying chicks at extreme speed, they could most acutely feel the significant increase in Long Aotian's speed within less than half an hour.

It seemed there was still no end in sight.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have made Wan Chuan, who had chased from eighty thousand li away to only ten thousand li, so desperate as to burn his Essence Blood.

...

Dragon War Emperor and Dragon War Sovereign, both at the Nascent Soul Realm Ninth Revolution Peak Stage, had a maximum Divine Sense coverage of only ten thousand li in radius.

When Wan Chuan approached within ten thousand li and suddenly burned his Essence Blood, he closed the distance to within two to three thousand li of them in just a few steps, almost half a breath. This astonishing scene unfolded within their Divine Sense range and under their witness, and the two Old Ancestors finally knew what kind of terrifying strong Cultivator was chasing their great-grandson, Xiao Aotian, immediately feeling their souls escape from their bodies.

The speed of a Mahayana Realm Ninth Revolution Peak Stage strong Cultivator! How could Xiao Aotian, carrying two burdens like them, escape the pursuit of such an opponent?

"Xiao Aotian, quickly drop us and escape!"

In a flash of lightning, Dragon War Emperor urgently shouted.

Xiao Aotian's Martial Arts Talent was that of a Prodigy; he must not perish here.

They, the two old fogeys, could not implicate their great-grandson.

Just as Dragon War Emperor cried out, Long Aotian's speed also noticeably increased rapidly.

Compared to the Divine Sense coverage of Dragon War Emperor and Dragon War Sovereign, which was only ten thousand li in radius, Long Aotian's Divine Sense covered five million li, and Wan Chuan's state was constantly under his Divine Sense surveillance.

When Wan Chuan closed in to thirty thousand li, Long Aotian had already formulated a countermeasure in his heart, and now, stimulated by Wan Chuan, he no longer wanted to wait.

Burning Essence Blood?

Who wouldn't know how to do that!

Just as Wan Chuan approached within two thousand li, Long Aotian also burned his Essence Blood, and his speed instantly soared.

Five hundred li per step... six hundred li per step... seven hundred li per step... eight hundred li per step... nine hundred li per step... When Long Aotian's speed increased to nine hundred li per step, the distance between Long Aotian and Wan Chuan was only seven hundred li, and Dragon War Emperor and Dragon War Sovereign's hearts were almost in their throats.

"Damn it!"

Seeing Long Aotian also burn his Essence Blood and his speed rapidly increasing, Wan Chuan was instantly enraged and fiercely increased the amount of Essence Blood he was burning.

In just two breaths, the distance between them closed again, to less than fifty li.

"Hmm?"

However, Long Aotian, who was burning his Essence Blood, was suddenly shocked by himself. Wan Chuan, and even Dragon War Emperor and Dragon War Sovereign, only thought that his speed was increasing due to burning Essence Blood.

However, was that truly the case?

What was most special about the Dragon Essence Blood of Ao Zhan, which was fused into Long Aotian's Essence Blood?

It was the Void Rule unique to the Grand Void Dragon Clan!

Long Aotian had only consumed and refined a few ten-thousandths of one drop of Ao Zhan's Dragon Essence Blood, diluted into ten thousand portions. This thin Essence Blood contained a faint Void Rule, and Long Aotian found it extremely difficult to mobilize this faint Void Rule within his body.

But if Long Aotian burned his Essence Blood, it would be different. That faint trace of the Advanced Void Rule within his body, which had Advanced with Ao Zhan's growth, was instantly activated as Long Aotian burned his Essence Blood.

Especially since, although Long Aotian was still very weak now, he was inherently a Chaotic Dao Body, possessing twelve attribute Spiritual Roots, among which was the mysterious Space Spiritual Root.

The burning of Essence Blood not only activated that faint trace of Advanced Void Rule contained within his Essence Blood but also, with the exertion of that faint trace of Advanced Void Rule, the Space Spiritual Root among the twelve attribute Spiritual Roots was triggered.

Coincidentally, Long Aotian was not using his internal spiritual power to fly in the air but was instead performing the Tai Xu Divine Steps, created by the Grand Void Dragon Clan's Ancestor, Tai Xu Supreme, based on the Void Rule inherent in the Grand Void Dragon Clan's Bloodline. The advancement of the Tai Xu Divine Steps itself was dependent on the advancement of the Void Rule; the stronger the Void Rule, the faster the Tai Xu Divine Steps Advanced.

In other words, Long Aotian's speed increase from burning Essence Blood was not due to the energy released by the burning Essence Blood, but rather because the Tai Xu Divine Steps were influenced by that faint trace of activated Advanced Void Rule within Long Aotian's body, and thus also Advanced.

Long Aotian's speed increase proved this point.

When his speed reached nine hundred li per step, Long Aotian's speed was still increasing, directly Breaking through to one thousand li per step.

Thus, the Tai Xu Divine Steps successfully Advanced to the Fourth Stage!

What would this mean?

Soon, a scene that stunned Wan Chuan and the two Long family Old Ancestors appeared.

With the Tai Xu Divine Steps, Void Rule, and Space Spiritual Root interacting, Long Aotian broke through to the Fourth Stage of the Tai Xu Divine Steps, and his speed continued to increase rapidly.

The Tai Xu Divine Steps once again Advanced to a higher minor tier, directly increasing from one thousand li per step to two thousand li per step!

The First Stage of Tai Xu Divine Steps is one li per step, the Second Stage is ten li per step, the Third Stage is one hundred li per step, the Fifth Stage is one thousand li per step, and the Sixth Stage is ten thousand li per step.

Therefore, at the Fourth Stage of Tai Xu Divine Steps, each minor tier increase meant a thousand li increase.

Could Wan Chuan, Dragon War Emperor, and Dragon War Sovereign not be dumbfounded? A speed of two thousand li per step, equivalent to the Peak speed of a Tribulation Transcendence Realm Second Revolution Stage strong Cultivator, was already terrifying.

However, this was not the end.

Long Aotian's speed continued to increase rapidly, until it reached nine thousand li per step, almost reaching the Fifth Stage of Tai Xu Divine Steps, before it stopped.

At this moment, Long Aotian's speed was already comparable to that of a Tribulation Transcendence Realm Ninth Revolution Peak Stage strong Cultivator.

Stunned!

Wan Chuan was utterly stunned!

Dragon War Emperor and Dragon War Sovereign were also utterly stunned!

What kind of terrifying Prodigy was this?

He actually increased his speed to such a frightening extent in just a few breaths!

It could almost be said that, currently, no one in the entire Sky Ruins Continent could match Long Aotian in speed.

The distance between them also rapidly increased with Long Aotian's surge in speed, pulling to over one hundred thousand li in just a few breaths, and this distance was still rapidly expanding.

"Haha... Wan Chuan, you little brat of the Fire Cloud Sect, right? You just wait, in less than three years, I, your grandpa Long Aotian, will definitely flatten your Fire Cloud Sect!"

Long Aotian was in a great mood, not expecting such a big gain from being chased. His Tai Xu Divine Steps had Advanced at a divine speed, almost breaking through to the Fifth Stage.

Once he Advanced to the Fifth Stage, his speed would be comparable to the Peak speed of an Ascension strong Cultivator at the Tribulation Transcendence Realm Ninth Revolution Peak Stage, which was the ultimate speed for Cultivators in the Lower Realm.

However, that was only the ultimate speed relative to other people. The Tai Xu Divine Steps also had a Sixth Stage of ten thousand li per step, a Seventh Stage of one hundred thousand li per step, an Eighth Stage of one million li per step, and a Ninth and final Stage of one hundred million li per step.

And even now, Long Aotian dared not claim to be invincible in cultivation strength, but in terms of speed, now comparable to the speed of a Tribulation Transcendence Realm Ninth Revolution Peak Stage strong Cultivator, he was already invincible in speed.

Although among Tribulation Transcendence Realm Ninth Revolution Peak Stage strong Cultivators, there were still Ascension strong Cultivators whose speed was faster than his, infinitely close to ten thousand li per step, their ten thousand li per step required the use of internal spiritual power, and they could not maintain Peak speed indefinitely, nor could they fly indefinitely.

His Tai Xu Divine Steps were different; they harnessed the power of the Void Rule in the heavens and earth. He could fly for as long as he wished, consuming almost no internal spiritual power... Hearing Long Aotian's hearty laughter, Wan Chuan, who was still chasing behind, had a face as ugly as if he had eaten a dead cockroach.

What kind of terrifying Prodigy had he, Wan Chuan, provoked...
